Jam Along & Learn...
Alright, so this [N] song used to be the jam when I was a kid.
for the longest time, I thought the song was actually about fishing in the dark.
and that was the title.
oh, [F] okay.
and so I thought I would [G] do it.
There's a yellow moon coming up tonight, shining through the trees.
bugs are floating on the breeze.
Across the field where the creek turns back by the old stump road.
for the longest time, I thought the song was actually about fishing in the dark.
and that was the title.
oh, [F] okay.
and so I thought I would [G] do it.
There's a yellow moon coming up tonight, shining through the trees.
bugs are floating on the breeze.
Across the field where the creek turns back by the old stump road.

Alright, so this [N] song used to be the jam when I was a kid.
And for the longest time, I thought the song was actually about fishing in the dark.
I mean, I was a kid and that was the title.
So, I mean, [C] what else was I supposed to think?
And then one day I [Eb] realized, oh, [F] okay.
So, anyway, it's still the jam and so I thought I would [G] do it.
Here we go.
_ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ _ There's a yellow moon coming up tonight, shining through the trees.
[G] Crickets are singing and lightning bugs are floating on the breeze.
[D] Baby, get ready. _
_ _ _ _ Across the field where the creek turns back by the old stump road.
_ [G] I'm gonna take you to a special place that nobody knows.
[D] Baby, get ready. _
[B] _ _ _ You and me going fishing in the dark.
Lying on our backs, hanging down in the [G] stars where the cool grass grows. _
_ _ _ _ [D] Down by the river in the full moon light.
We'll be falling in love in the middle of the night.
Just moving slow. _
[G] _ _ _ _ [Em] Staying the whole [A] night through.
[Em] Feels so good to be [D] with you. _ _
_ _ _ Spring is almost over and the summer's come and the days are getting long.
[G] Waiting all winter for the time to be right just to take you along.
Baby, get [D] ready. _ _
_ _ _ It don't matter if we sit forever and the fish don't bite.
[G] Jump in the river and cool ourselves in the heat of the night.
Baby, [D] get ready. _ _
